I think she ran away, she must have ran awayWith the carnival, todayShe loved the chimpanzees, she always loved flying trapezeShe loved the carnival more then she loved meI can not hold her like the strongest man aliveI can not get her high, she rides the ferris wheel all nightI start to cry and the moonlight in my tears looks like the midway lightsI think she's with the carnival tonightI think she ran away she must have ran awayWhen the circus was in town, todayI thought we got along, I thought nothing was wrongShe was the happiest I've seen her in daysI can't sleep when I dream of 3 legged manWe had a lovely house, now it's the big top tent, give me a chanceI can love you more than those elephantsBut she wants the clowns that make the horses danceYour with the carnival I guessYour with the carnival I guessYour with the carnival I guessYour with the carnival I guessI think she ran away, she must have ran awayWith the carnival, todayI thought I smelled her cotton-candy breathe in those balloonsI can't see her face now, it's all covered with tattoosCan not hold her like the strongest man aliveI can not get her high, she rides the ferris wheel all nightI start to cry and the moonlight in my tears looks like the midway lightsI think she's with the carnival tonightShe must be with the carnival tonightI think she's with the carnival tonight
